Works For Me Wednesday - Save those containers

If you will be hosting Thanksgiving at your house this year start saving your sour cream, cottage cheese and any other container that comes with a lid and is reusable. You can use these containers to send home left overs with guests and/or store your left overs in your fridge. If you send them with others and don't get them back, then you aren't at any real loss.

I have a large bin in my garage that I throw all these containers into and then will load up the dishwasher just before Thanksgiving to wash them all up!

This works for me! Click here for lots of other tips, tricks and recipes!

After the holidays are over, those plastic containers also work great for starting plants for your garden.

Positively the best tip I've read all week!

I am enjoying my visit to your blog (it's my first time). I hope you can stop over to Free 2 Be Frugal sometime soon.

Great tip. I usually use ziplocs but sometimes a more sturdy container is necessary.
